President Trump in his Afghanistan speech stated that the Afghans need to pay their own fair share. How refreshing it is that our current President is asking non-Americans to pay more instead of our last President going after Americans to pay more. All BHO did is take a ton of American Tax payers money and give it to foreign countries like the Iran deal and the Afghans.

Yep. A good friend of mine's mom escaped from East Germany in a manner like that video. She was the only member of her family to make it out alive. She had a strong German accent her whole life. My friend always said her mom refused to discuss it with anyone, ever. But I got her to talk about it one night late over drinks (I was so curious). The tears came just 10m in.

It can be if the people teaching the generations that followed the Berlin Wall are ideologically sympathetic to the people who built the Wall.
